"With so many artifacts, both personal as well as technical, and so thoughtfully and strategically displayed throughout the three levels, we were captivated by the interesting back stories that our guides provided. Highly recommend."
They had many original artifacts and pieces that really made the history come alive! Worth the money!
So many interesting things about Thomas Edison and his family! And the inventions, and how they lived back then. The tour guide was so knowledgeable and fun.
The house sure didn’t look like much from the outsize, but boy were we surprised! So many amazing original pieces dating back into the 1800’s, and the tour is a must!
Highly recommended. Learned not only about Thomas Edison but the whole Edison family and his close famous friends. The tour guide seemed to know everything about the home and the people.
We are debating what we loved the most, either the building and museum or our tour guide. This location is so well maintained and well worth the time to visit. Our tour guide "Maylee", really knew her stuff and we were so thrilled to find out she is a high school student.
We have been fascinated by Thomas Edison's life since visiting Greenfield Village. But in 2 hours at the Edison birthplace we learned much more than multiple visits at Greenfield Village ever taught us! Take the time to visit this place.
I highly recommend this wonderful tour!! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable which made it so great.
Open Thursday - Sunday, 12PM - 5PM
The last tour of the day is at 4PM.
